ES seems to be useless with the open source r600g driver. KWin just crashes immediately.

And regular OpenGL is slow as molasses :-D Amazing times for Linux desktops, yey! It feels as exciting as it was back 15 years ago. All hail the mighty Linux Desktop that is so much better than Windows 7 and OS X :-)

You need to compile yourself (Kubuntu 11.10 will have extra packages ready) if you want OpenGL ES 2.0 which is the fastest option, otherwise it will just use OpenGL 2.0 which is still better than KDE SC 4.6. With KDE SC 4.8, it probably won't be necessary to have different packages/recompile for OpenGL ES 2.0.

Also, if you have slow performance, try setting the graphicssystem of Qt to "raster". It will be the default in Qt 4.8 anyway.
